As long as there is no authentic statement from the Quran or the Sunnah of the Prophet, peace be upon him, that a particular thing is forbidden, then it is considered Halal” Therefore, the following products are definitely Halal:
• Milk (from cows, buffalos, sheep, camels, and goats)
• Honey
• Fish
• Plants which are not intoxicant
• Fresh or naturally frozen vegetables
• Fresh or dried fruits
• Legumes and nuts like peanuts, cashew nuts, hazel nuts, walnuts, etc.
• Grains such as wheat, rice, rye, barley, oat, etc.
Animals such as cows, sheep, goats, deer, moose, chickens, ducks, game birds, etc., are also Halal, but they must be Zabiha (slaughtered according to the Islamic Rites) in order to be suitable for consumption.
